liV ,lfERUSALiEM, the Cabinet dealt with rioting recent¬ ly by ultra-Orthodox zealots in which a mob of re.sident.=i of •Jerusalem's Meah Shearim quarter broke into a nearby Education Ministry building, smashinjg doors, windows and furniture, resulting in damage and destruction in about 20 rooms of the building.
The attack on the Education Ministry building followed day-long clashes over Sabbath traffic near the Meah Shear¬ im quarter between the zealots and the police in which a number of police were injured by stone-throwing demon¬ strators and nine of the zealots were arrested. Police used firehoses on the demonstrators who hurled rocks and bottles at police units stationed in the quarter in efforts to prevent recurrence of the anti-traffic rioting.
IN NEW YORK, Undersecretary of State W. Averell Harriman challenged Soviet Russia's "elaborate denials" of anti-.Tewish discrimination in the USSR. He disclosed that during his last visit to Moscow he had raised the question of religion with Nikita Khrushchev, following the visit of his .son-in-law, Alexei Adzhubei, to the late Pope John. "The Soviet leader replied that he is an atheist in an ¦Ttheist government," Mr. Harriman reported. "He closed the door to any thought that the Soviet government might alter its anti-religious policies."
In his address before the American Jewish Congress, G(5v. Harriman charged that "the heaviest burden" of the Soviet government's campaign of religious '"suppression" and "discrimination" had been borne by Jews. He called for "relentle.ss exposure of the real facts" of Soviet anti-Semi¬ tism "to the spotlight of world opinion."

MOROCCAN, IRANIAN JEWS BENEFIT BY JDC ASSISTANCE
ROME (JTA) — The Joint Dis¬ tribution Committee provides medi- "6al, child care and social welfare programs that serve one-third of the Jewish population of Morocco and Iran — about 180,000 Jewish men. women and children. The re¬ port was one of several given to the -owning session ot the United Jewish Appeal Study Mission which convened here.
The reports on Morocco and Iran were given by members of the study mission who visited those countries before joining the rest of the mission here, as weU as by staff members ot the JDC.
PROGRAMS in both countries embraced in the reports have been affected by the general movement of populations from rural areas to urban   regions.
In Morgcco, Jewish migration from the primitive hinterland has necessitated the reactivation of medical programs against trach¬ oma and ringworm which had been almost eradicated among the Jew¬ ish urban dwellers.
HOWEVER, the report noted, due to the overall reduction ot . indi¬ vidual Jews in need in Morocco, it has been found possible in that country to undertake services for special groups.
One of those services consists of the establishment of tiiree homes for the Jewish aged in Cas-
